Amidst the fallout from PlayStation's announcement that it will stop manufacturing physical discs in 2028, SEC filings reveal that Sony CEO Hiroki Totoki sold more than half of his stock shortly after the news broke. Some fans have vocally protested Sony halting physical disc production and canceling their PS Plus subscriptions in hopes the company would listen.
On June 3, 2026, two days after PlayStation's big announcement, SEC filings show Sony CEO Hiroki Totoki sold 225,000 shares of Sony stock, or about 56% of his stake in the company. At the time of the sale, Sony traded at $21.02 per share, leaving the CEO with about $4.7 million and 173,250 shares. Additionally, Sony CSO, Toshimoto Mitomo, also sold 25,000 of his shares, or about 18% of his stake in the company, for a total of $525,500 on the same day. Shortly after PlayStation announced it would stop producing physical media, Sony's stock also took a bump, and it's only risen ever since. As of July 08, 2026, Sony stock is trading at $21.15 per share.
